Anybody know which rust-oleum spray paint (at home depot) matches the silver chieftec? if not, any other paint or store suggestions?

We need some kind of a color code for these, huh? Silver should be fairly easy to match up.

Mine is a blue colored Cheiftec. Anyone know what the different codes are for all the different colors? I think they are called dupont codes or something.

Go to a car paintshop and have them analyze and make the paint, it probably isn't cheap but I don't think it's really expensive.

Depending on what you want/need to paint you might consider doing the whole case as metallic paint will look differently when sprayed at a different angle.

Doesn't like home depot and places like that do paint color matching?
